Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: The jungles of Surinam near the Caribbean are fascinating but no place for the prudish or those who demand luxury. In the forest clothing is minimal, as illustrated by the Indian wife at right or the Bush Negro matron at left using straw tube to drain poison from a mealtime staple, cassava root. And, as Star staff writer George Bryant finds at left centre, travel by dugout canoe can involve enduring tropical storms.
